- the current i R in the resonance inductor L R can now be reduced against the voltage -1/4 U d via the auxiliary circuit switch 18, resonance inductor L R , power semiconductor switch T3 and decoupling diode D6. No further commutation should be permitted in the inverter phase 2 for this time, since otherwise the auxiliary switch 18 should switch off and the auxiliary switch 16 would have to switch on. This can no longer be done losslessly for auxiliary switches 16 and 18 (zero current switching); rather, overvoltages that occur would endanger the switching elements.
- the power semiconductor switch T2 is turned on without loss. Thus, the corresponding path is created in the event of zero current crossing.

To commutate these diodes D1 and D2, the load current i L must be redirected to the resonance inductance L R and an additional current i R -i L to the power semiconductor switches T1 and T2. This is initiated by firing the auxiliary switch 16. The current i R rises above the value of i L until the energy required for the switching process is stored in the resonance inductor L R.

- the power semiconductor switches T3 and T4 switch on without loss, since the diodes D3 and D4 carry the resonance current i R.
- the resonance inductor L R magnetises itself.
- an operating mode without overlapping master durations can also be set.
- this alternative mode of operation is explained in more detail below on the basis of the commutation processes from the lower line semiconductor switches T 3 , T 4 to the upper power semiconductor switches T 1 or D1, T 2 or D2 of the inverter phase 2 of the low-loss line inverter.

- the resonant circuit capacitor C R2 is discharged and the resonance capacitor C R1 is charged to + U d / 2.
- the line semiconductor switch T4 is first switched off.

- the auxiliary switch 18 is relieved by the resonance inductance L R after the power semiconductor switch T 4 has gone out and is therefore switched on without loss.
- a positive resonant current i R builds up due to the switching of 1/4 U d on which is superimposed in the power semiconductor switch T 3 and in the resonant capacitor C R2 to the load current i L and thus accelerates the reversal operation .

- the decoupling diode D 6 begins to conduct.
- Inverter phase 2 is in the zero state.
- the load current i L now flows via the power semiconductor switch T 3 and the decoupling diode D 6 .
- the power semiconductor switch T 2 is switched on without loss. In this way, the corresponding path is created in the event of zero current crossing.
- the power semiconductor switch T 3 is switched off.
- the current i L commutates via the diode D 2 to the resonance capacitor C R1 which is parallel to the power semiconductor switch T 1 and is now discharged from the potential + U d / 2 to zero.
- the auxiliary circuit 14 can also be switched on here to accelerate the reversing process.
- the auxiliary switch 16 can be switched on without loss.
- the resonance inductance L R is magnetized at the voltage U CR1 -1/4 U d and demagnetized again in the further course of the oscillation process.
- the voltage at the power semiconductor switch T 3 swings to the value of U d / 2.
- the potential U d / 2 is thus connected to the output terminal 24 of the inverter phase 2.
- the diode D 1 takes over the load current i L.
- the diodes D 1 and D 2 are now conducting.
- the load current i L through the current path decoupling diode D 5 and power semiconductor switch T 2 is now performed.

- the switch-off process from the power semiconductor switch T 1 and T 2 proceeds in an analogous manner to the switch-off from the line semiconductor switch T 3 and T 4 described above .
- the current i L currently flows through the diodes D 1 and D 2 .
- the load current i L must be redirected to the resonance inductor L R. This is initiated by switching on the auxiliary switch 16.
- the resonance current i R rises above the value of the load current i L until the diode reverse current of the diode D 1 breaks off.
- the energy required for the reversing process is stored with a sufficiently large diode reverse current.
- the resonance capacitor C R1 is charged by the excess current (i R -i L ) in the resonance inductance L R.
- the power semiconductor switch T 1 takes up the voltage U d / 2.
- the resonance inductance L R is magnetized via the decoupling diode D 5 and the power semiconductor switch T 2 against U d / 4. During this time, the power semiconductor switch T 3 switches on at zero voltage, the load current i L can then be continued via the power semiconductor switch T 3 , the decoupling diode D 6 and the connection point M. If the diode reverse current from the diode D 1 is not sufficient for the voltage at the resonance capacitor C R1 to swing around completely, the power semiconductor switch T 3 must be switched on at a residual voltage, the resonance capacitor C R1 suddenly being discharged to zero. The resulting energy loss is relatively low.
- the power semiconductor switch T 2 may first be switched off (de-energized, i.e. without effect). Subsequently, the auxiliary switch 18 must be switched on, whereby the load current i L commutates on the resonant inductance branch L R , auxiliary switch 16, -1/4 U d .
- the current i R in the inductance L R increases until it reaches the load current i L and the diode reverse current of the decoupling diode D 6 and thus the energy required for the oscillation.

- the power semiconductor switch T 4 switches on without loss since the diodes D 3 and D 4 carry the additional current iR.
- the resonance inductor L R magnetises against the voltage U d / 4. If the diode reverse current is too low, active switching on of the power semiconductor switch T 4 at the voltage minimum is also required here.
- the load current i L is conducted via the decoupling diode D 5 and the power semiconductor switch T 2 .
- the orientation of the current i L is more favorable than in the commutation process described above after changing the sign.
- the switch T 2 is switched off, the load current i L commutates into the diode D 3 and the resonance capacitor C R2 , which is thus discharged.
- the auxiliary switch 18 can be switched on without loss in order to accelerate the reversal process. An additional current is superimposed on the discharge current from the resonance capacitor C R2 .
- the power semiconductor switch T 4 switches on without loss since the diodes D 3 and D 4 carry the load current i L.
- the power inverter described uses a linear choke L R in the resonant circuit.
- the choke L R In order to achieve a short changeover time, the choke L R must be designed with a small inductance.
- a small inductance is important for a second reason. The smaller the inductance, the greater the current increase in the resonance inductance L R , the greater the di / dt of the diode current, and the greater the reverse delay charge of the diode. If the current rise speeds are too slow, the storage charge of the diode is already partially recombined in the zero current crossing, so that the reverse delay charge and thus the initial energy of the reversal process are too low.
- a saturable choke provides a remedy. she has a large inductance at low currents, so that the switching losses of auxiliary switches 16 and 18 remain low, and at the same time ensures a steep commutation of the Diodes with a sufficiently high reverse delay charge.
